I went to three different trailheads to interview willing participants based on the information found on trailhead signs. Using this information, I was able to compile data to find the amount of visitors who looked at these signs, and which topics visitors answered most correctly.

A project in collaboration with Nord University in Norway to highlight students' perspectives on International Social Work day 2024. The theme for this year's international social work day is "Buen Vivir: Shared Future for Transformative Change" with an emphasis to adopt innovative, community-led approaches that are grounded in indigenous wisdom and harmonious coexistence with nature. The video project interviewed social work students at both universities on their perspectives of what it means to be a social worker contributing to a shared future for transformative change.

The goals of this project is to assess adverse childhood experiences(ACEs)among students who attend Humboldt State University, & to explore campus resources students use to sustain their academic success, despite these challenges. I conducted a survey on HSU students (n=133), scoring their ACEs using the Kaiser Permanente study of childhood experiences, & asking a series of questions about their childhood, adult & HSU experiences. I found various resources & attachments that students reported as supporting their success in college. This research can help bring attention adverse childhood experiences on campus, & can provide a useful insight on resources needed to serve this population.

Urban development forces city and town boundaries to encroach further into wildland habitats and natural landscapes all over the world, causing immense habitat loss and fragmentation. Human-wildlife conflict with mesocarnivores (skunks, foxes, raccoons, etc.) increases as rising rural population densities push more small mammals into anthropogenic areas. This senior thesis study uses trail cameras to assess habitat and resource use vs. availability along the wildland-urban interface among nocturnal small mammals to determine presence of selection.

Climate change is one of worlds greatest threat to ecosystems and biodiversity. Rising temperatures could have increased impact on migratory waterfowl during spring migration periods. I went out a did point counts at three different locations (Arcata Marsh, Hookton Slough, Salmon Creek), measured temperature and other environmental factors and waterfowl abundance. There was no significant impact by temperature on waterfowl abundance. Further Research could be done over a longer period of time to measure the impacts climate change and rising temperatures could have on migration timing during the spring.

A summary of Intercollegiate Forensics at Humboldt from the founding of the program in 1926 to cancellation in 2023.

Each year senior capstone students in the HSU Department of Economics provide an updated calculation of a consumer price index (CPI) for Eureka, CA, using Bureau of Economic Analysis methodology and extensive local price data collection. This year the project will also include extensive analysis of each CPI sector such as housing, food, and transportation.

I developed a needs assessment for DHHS, North Coast AIDS Project. This was used to evaluate the needs of our clients and evaluate the program services that we provide. This assessment also helps to acquire any future funding for these services offered to Humboldt County residents living with HIV/AIDS.

All together we volunteered over 60 hours at Arcata Elementary After School Program where we had to chance to interact with the staff and students. During this experience we were able to work one on one with some children as well as work/play with larger groups during "clubs". Being able to give our time to these children and focus on them for the few hours we were there was a very rewarding experience that we would like to share.
